i need to add friends.i feel depressed of LPR

I have had laryngopharyngeal Reflux since November 09 .I have been treated for this since March.I'm 45 years old.Worked at night so i eat before going to bed for 2 years.I have doubt now if I have LPR for real.My symtoms are nausea,belching all day before or after meal,constipation (since I have taken PPI), trouble sleeping because of abdomen pain,I have too much gas in my ab causeing pain 24/7.First ENT dianosed me with laryngitis+pharyngitis.After I recovered them.I found my throat has been burning and still painful.So i went for 2nd ENT opinion who dianosed me as Laryngopharyngeal Reflux.I tried to change my eating pattern .I got better.But recently I feel hungry at night again.So i turn back to eat very light meal before going to bed 2 hours with enzymes ( prescription from the ENT.doc)I want to do endocoping for upper digestive system.But i have baby (whom i adopted)So i can't leave her alone to take endocopy.I feel depressed so much.She is weak and innate low immuned.What should i do for myself? I don't have anyone.But me and her.:((

When did the 2nd ENT recommend endoscopy?  In order to take care of daughter you must take care of you.  What is your eating pattern?  Praying for you.

I haven't had the 2nd endoscoping.MY ENT wanted me to continue on Protonix 40 am/pm with Domperidone.I added Ranitidine 150 once a day when my symtom gets worse.It helps esp my allergy.I have severe allergies.I don't understand I always feel hungry at 2-3 am.My stomachache makes me wake up every night.Then I need to eat something before going back to sleep.I don't know how to change this eating pattern.Some time I don't eat but I can't sleep with that pain-it s way too much.Thanks for your prayers.
